Since assuming command of the Cooper Group, he had poured all his energy into work to win over her parents—but it had meant sidelining her for a while. She had carried his child and waited years for him. He owed her everything.

“Where are we sleeping tonight?” he asked.

Romina tugged him upstairs toward her room.

The interior was unchanged—clearly cared for. The sheets were fresh, and the bathroom was stocked with toiletries, towels, and bathrobes.

Zeke closed the door behind them, locked it, and took in the sight of her flushed face. Unable to help himself, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her with fierce longing.

The kiss was deep—too deep. She could hardly catch her breath.

Eventually, he paused, his face pressed to her neck, his breathing rough. “Babe… are we really doing this in your parents’ house?”

Romina was far beyond caring. “This house has excellent sound insulation.”

“Does it?” he murmured. Then he wasn’t going to hold back.

He laughed, hoisted Romina over his shoulder, and walked into the bathroom. He didn’t even bother drawing a bath—who had the patience?

Placing her under the shower, he let the warm spray drench them both before pressing her against the wall and kissing her again—fierce and insatiable.

Once back in Ecatin, the first thing Zeke did was take Romina to City Hall to get married.

After that, they began planning their wedding celebration.

Emma and Ricky were swamped that month—so many weddings to attend. Michael and Dayana’s came first—a lavish event Ricky had secretly planned for Dayana, putting his heart into every detail.

Then came the weddings of Zeke and Romina, Travis and Evie, and lastly, Elin and Almeric. Each celebration was grand—one couple after another sealing their vows.

Emma hadn’t stayed in touch with Jenifer, but word about her eventually reached her. Jenifer never returned to her hometown. After her release, she had tried to leave quietly—but Nathan wouldn’t let go.

Nathan still loved her, especially now that Jenifer had come to terms with her past and genuinely turned around. He followed his heart and gave her another shot. She stayed because of him—and took back the bridal boutique Nathan had run so successfully when she was not around.

Because of Nathan’s diary, Jenifer changed. It took almost three years for her to reclaim who she used to be—letting go of bitterness, choosing to start fresh. Her dependence on Nathan grew even stronger.

The news warmed Emma’s heart. She wanted Jenifer to find peace too.

“What’s on your mind?” came a familiar voice as a pair of strong arms circled her waist.

She turned and met Ricky’s warm gaze. “I heard Jenifer and Nathan are together now.”

“That’s good to hear.”

“It really is.”

Everything had settled. After the storms, only gentleness remained.

As days passed, life became simpler—but filled with a quiet kind of happiness. Emma spent years by Ricky’s side. They watched their kids grow up, went to their school events, graduation ceremonies, rites of passage, and weddings… and she came to understand that love didn’t need to be explosive to be true—it just had to endure.

The deepest love was found in quiet loyalty.

Through all the years, her heart still chose Ricky.

And she often wondered—if she hadn’t fought for her chance, hadn’t demanded her place, if she hadn’t insisted during those first two years—would they have missed this?

There was no doubt—she was truly happy now.

Years of devotion had not gone to waste.

Now, every step ahead was a shared path with Ricky. To take his hand—and age side by side.
